Culture In The Country

Culture blooms in the country districts of the prairie provinces of
Western Canada.

In the United States, Europe is popularly regarded as the fount of
knowledge, of the source of the best in literature and the aesthetic arts.
In Canada people are prone to look to the older lands and particularly Bri-
tain for inspirational direction and in the country districts of Western Can-
ada there is a tendency to regard the cities as the seats of culture and

wisdom.

But facts demonstrate the tontrary to be the truth. On the farm and
in the small town and village the search for wisdom and beauty is more
keen than in the cities and it is there that birth is given to discriminatng
appreciation of the beautiful in the fine arts and this, despite the fact that
opportunities for development of cultural attainments is restricted as com-
pared with the larger centres. .

It is true that in the cities one will find intellectual leaders and com-
petent exponents of art, music and the drama, But where did they origi-
nate? In a substantial percentage of instances, the farm or the small
town home will be found to have given them birth and is the source'of at
least their early education. Later, because of the necessity of finding an
outlet for their activities they move to the cities and there is a steady in-
filtration of talent from the country to the unban centres. If it were not
so, culture in the cities would eventually wilt of inanition and die for lack
of revivifying material. .

For even as the land is the original source of wealth, so also, is it the
fountain of thought and culture.

As this new country becomes more and more stabilized one finds an
increasing number of individuals and groups from country points capturing
major awards at provincial and western music and drama festivals and
often, where winners give city addresses, the credit should be given to the
farm home or the small town school for the initial development of the
talent they represent.

At provincial exhibitions one sees initiative expressed to a high degree!
in arts and crafts exhibits from small town and country schools and let-
ters to the editor appearing in city dailies from correspondents at country
points frequently reveal concentrated thought and discriminatory analysis
to a greater degree than is found in effusions from city residents.

That this should be so need not occasion much surprise when compari-
son is made between the environment and life habits of the city dweller
and the resident of the rural districts.

The country resident lives close to nature and has an unrivalled oppor-
tunity to study her manifestations. Indeed, to be successful, he must do
so. He sits at the footstool of the greatest teacher mankind knows and,
consciously or unconsciously, imbibes wisdom at the source. The natural
laws that he learns here he must apply to his own operations. For this
reason, if for no other, the dweller in the open.evolves a process of deep
thinking and pursues his studies to a definite conclusion. Such habits are

“naturally applied to the problems in which he takes an interest, whether
they be those of his own business or in the wider ream of economics and
social affairs.

| hia

This is the underlying reason for the close approximation to unanimity
which usually marks decisions at farmers’ conventions when questions of
broad policy are up for discussion. The delegates have invariably given
much thought in advance to the questions before them, have argued the
pros and cons in their own mintis, have come to a decision and know what
they want.

In the cities life follows an altogether different trend. It is true that in
his own business the city man has to think things through, but when it
comes to wider social and economic matters, the average city man is more
ready to accept the conclusions of others than to make his own. Not be-
cause he is afflicted with an inferiority complex but because, outside his
own business, his. interests are so diversified, that he spends little or no
time attempting to solve questions of public policy to his. own satisfac-
tion. He sips a little of this and a little of that and in the process gathers
little of solidity.

Little intricacies of procedure give
even uneventful sessions a flavor of
interest in the British House of Com-
mons, says a writer in the Daily
Sketch, who reports that even some
members are not as well versed as
they might be. For example, Lady
Astor, the first woman to take her
seat in the House, has been there for
18 years. Yet at question-time Lady
Astor showed that she has not
grasped—-or perhaps she momentar-
ily forgot—-an essential rule of the
game. She put a question to Mr.
Morrison, the Min‘ster of Agricul-
ture, and he answered: “No, sir.”
‘I'm not a sir,’ Lady Astor flashed
back. What she overlooked was that
Mr. Morrison's “sir’’ was not directed
to her, but to the Speaker. No M.P.
talks to another M.P. across the
floor, but must always address the
chair.

Monster Telescope To Be
Erected In California Will

Weigh A Million Pounds

Albert Einstein and 100° other
scientists watched the last bolt
Placed in the tube which will carry a
200-inech telescope mirror and they
learned the great tube is going to
be the world’s first “sky cage.”

It will not only house the big glass}
eye that will see 1,000,000,000 light '
years out into space—but its crew of |
astronomers will do everything but |
sleep in the moving tube.

As the tube swings across the
sky, astronomers will work in a cage
in its upper end, in a basket hang-
ing beneath its bottom and in a big
cylindrical room alongside its middle.

The telescope and its problems
are so vast that for the first time
the astronomical observers cannot
readily stand outside and look
through.

The telescope itself will be in sorhe
respect a more wonderful thing than
any of the sights yet caught of stars
and distant nebulae. The tube, about
75 tons, is a steel framework the
ra .of a six-room house, and when

tts “top” is bolted on will weigh 87
tons and be as tall as a aix-storey
building.

Pressure of a child's hand will
be able to swing this giant structure
to and fro on its axis when it is fin-
ally mounted.

Furthermore the ‘entire telescope
when finished will weigh 1,000,000
pounds. Completed and set up on Mt.
Polomar, California, the telescope
alone will be a steel structure 4%
storeys high.

The astronomer riding the top will
look directly at rays focussed from
the 200-inch mirror 55 feet below
him in the bottom of the tube. In
the middle of the great mirror is a
40-inch wide hole and beneath this
will be swung a basket in which |
other astronomers can ride. They |
will see the objects in the mirror

Well Known In England

His Highness Prince Aga Khan Un-
derstands Western World Politics
Perhaps the best known of repre-

sentatives of British India at the

Coronation was His Highness the

Prince Aga Khan.

Remote descendant of Ali, cousin |
\of the prophet Mahomet, Rt. Hon. |
Aga Khan is the spiritual leader of}
the Shiah sect, one of the two great
branches of the Mohammedan faith.
To his influence was largely due the
toyalty of the Mohammedans of In-|
dia during the years when there was
80 much unrest.

The Aga Khan is astonishingly
learned, possessing -a knowledge of
almost every current Buropean
tongue, and a complete understand-
ing of the politics of the races of the
West.

He has lived for the most part in
England and has made a position for
himself there unique among the
princes of India. From his own
country he enjoys a tributary in-
come of nearly $2,500,000 a year. His
horses are worth at least $5,000,000
and his vast investments millions
more.

In recognition of his great services
during the war he was granted the
rank of a first-class chief of the
Bombay Presidency, with a salute of
11 guns. Im 1930 and 1931 he was
chairman of: the British India dele-
gation to the round table conference
in London and in 1932 represented
India at the world disarmament con-
ference at Geneva.

over the script. Bruce Carruthers,
am ex-mountie, just has finished this
job for a two-reeler. He spotted two-
score mistakes.

The first scene for the troop, sii
on horses, was to salute the flag.
“The men do not salute mounted,”
suggested Carruthers, “they merely
sit strietly at attention.”

Another sequence called for the
sergeant, on meeting a fur-draped
girl, to declare, “that silver fox pelt
sets you off like a million pounds.”

“He should say ‘dollars’,” the ex-
pert corrected. “No woman would
like to look so heavy.”

His final suggestion was not tech-
nically @ part of his job. He hap-
pened to notice it and threw it in

A Scottish fur trader, Augus, was
admiring a ‘pelt and commented
“finest I’ve seen in 20 years around

All wrong, pointed out the expert.

clared a large part of wool “already
is in process of manufacture into
uniforms Some of it has not yet
reached that stage. If conditions in
the world become quieter this wool!

|

“may be thrown back on the market

for lay purposes with a resultant
drop in prices.”

The price of wool to-day, highest
since 1928, can be traced directly,
this same official said, to the busy
looms of Europe.

The international labor office at
Geneva reported to a textile confer-
ence in Washington this month that
in Germany and Italy “wool manu-
facturing is now facing the same
scarcity of‘raw materials as cotton |
manufacturing. Programs stimulat-
ing home production of wool substi-
tutes, and maximum recovery of used
wools and waste, have been promoted
energetically in both cases,”

Just Matter Of Age

A German medical authority has
expressed the opinion that persons
possessing blue eyes live longer than |
those with brown. Another doctor!
agrees with him as to the longer life
of the blue-eyed, ‘Medical opinion in
this country is, however, observing’
caution in this matter, refusing to
generalize, putting forward the
theory that eyes grow paler with
age, which would make dark eyes
relatively less common.

the number of manufacturing work-
ers, often cited as evidence of tech-

were not thrown out of jobs, Mr.

The workers, he pointed out, were
absorbed by other lines. There had
been a great increase in service in-
dustries, for instance. Concern for
the esthetic side of life was refiect-
ed in increased production of lux-

Mother Goose Rhyme

Ancient Persian Design Depicts Cow
Jumping Over The Moon

A 5,000-year-old Persian predeces-

sor of the Mother Goose rhyme, ‘Hey,

diddle diddle, the cat arid the fiddle,

the cow jumped over the moon,” was

’| described by Dr. Phyllis Ackerman,

archaeologist.
A similar incident of animal acro-

| baties is depicted in Persian designs

dating as far back as 3,000 B.C, she
told a meeting of the Institute of
Persian Art and Archaeology.

“But the early eastern people
didn't make patterns like that for
fun,” she explained. “They made
them to encourage their hopes and
quell their fears.”

In the Persian design, which lacks
only the fiddle, the cow hopping over
the moon represented the triumph
of heavenly forces and meteorological
conditions favorable to crops.

“What's wrong about spelling cat
k-a-t?” asks an eastern educator. On
the other hand, what's right about
it?

Isaac’s Prosperity and Its Result,
26:12-17. A hundredfold was the
yield which Isaac obtained from his
sowing, and so great were his flocks
and herds and his household that the
Philistines envied him.
| The envy of the Philistines led
them to fill up the wells which Abra-
ham had dug, and Abimelech, their
king, commanded Isaac to leave. Al-|
though Isaac was, as his enemies ad-
mitted, stronger than they, he would
not strive with them. Without wells
he could not support his cattle, and
so he moved on and erected his camp
in the Valley of Gerar.

Trouble at Gerar, 26:18-21. Isaac
re-dug the wells made by Abraham
which the Philistines had stopped up,
and called them by the names given
them by his father. In digging for a
new well in the valley, “a well of
springing water’’ was found. There is
an underground stream of water
flowing beneath the rock through |
the valley past Hebron and Gerar
and Beersheba. The herdsmen of
Gerar contended with Isaac’s herds- |

Gardening |

During the early part of the sea-
son, a little cultivation every week
will help plants along wonderfully.
The purpose is two-fold. Unsightly
weeds are killed and valuable mois-
ture is conserved. Growth is hur- -
ried a'ong. Later cn as the flowers
or vegetables develop it will not be
to cultivate so often.
Sometimes a mulch of short straw or
grass clippings is used to retain
mo'sture during the summer. This
mulch is simply spread over the
ground between the plants. It keeps
the underlying soil moist, open and
free from weeds.

The importance of good seed is im-
possible to over-emphasize, Other
factoys may be beyond control, but
the gardener has absolute check over
this foundation. Weather, soil and
location may be ideal, but without
good seed, especially selected to suit
Canadian conditions, the garden is
going to be a failure. There is no
guarantee that a flower which has
given wonderful results in Great Bri-
tain or the Southern States will do
equally well in this country, and be-
cause of this the average gardener
is well advised to secure his seed
and nursery stock from a reliable
Canadian source.

Many fine points can be consider-
ed when laying out a flower garden.
Certain shades blend well together
and often a whole bed will be select-
ed with this blending in mind. Of
course, for this sort of thing all the
plants must bloom. during the same
period, Fragrance should be taken
into account as there are some spicy
things like Evening Scented Stock,
Nicotine, Mignonette, Sweet Su'tan
and Verbena which, while rather
plain as plants, fill the whole garden
with a delightful incense, more es-
pecially in the evening. In shaded
quarters, tuberous rooted Begonias,
Pansies and wild flowers will do well.
In fact they prefer this location to
any other. In partial shade nearly
every annual can be grown. On poor
soil Portulaca is a favorite, as well
as Alyssum, Sweet-scented Stocks,
Linum, Calendulas, Calliopsis, Sun-
flowers, Schizanthus, Salpiglossis,
Marigolds, Petunias and many others.
These will also successfully resist
dry weather.

NATIONS AGREE
TO CO-OPERATE ON
WORLD PROBLEMS

London.—Norman Davis has _ re-
ceived final assurances of British and
general European co-operation with
the United States in solving world
economic problems, it was reported
here.

Since

the United States ambas-|

sador-at-large has been in London he}
talked with leading European states-|
men whose pledge of co-operation he
is expected to convey President
Roosevelt. .

Last doubts as to the validity of)
these assurances, it is felt here, were |
dispelled by agreement of 22 coun-!
tries to sign the international sugar |
conference agreement designed to,
stabilize that industry’s production |
and marketing. |

Davis called the sugar conference
“probably the most successful inter- |
national deliberation I ever saw,”
and it is expected to become the |
model for future economic negotia-|
tions. It proved, the ambassador}
said, that a co-operative ‘conference |
can be successful. |

Montreal. — Sir Edward Beatty,
president of Canadian Pacific Rail-

action on the part of all govern-
mental authorities will be required
to curb the relief expenditures which
are tending to increase despite re-
turning prosperity.”

“A solution of the tangled railway |
problem is still most urgently re-
quired,” he said. ‘‘The serious note
of warning with which the Duff com-|
mission concluded its report is being |
ignored. The tremendous waste in-|
volved in the operation of duplicate
scrvices, which that commission
hoped to éliminate, continues.-:

“A solution which could be adopt-
ed to the great advantage of the
taxpayers and without injury to em-
ployees or. railway patrons is widely
accepted as logical and desirable.
However, it awaits political sponsor-
ship,”” he declared.
